DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The spirit of the invention will be described clearly through the drawings and the detailed description as follows. Any of those of ordinary skills in the art can make modifications and variations from the technology taught in the invention after understanding the embodiments of the invention, without departing from the sprite and scope of the invention.

References are made to FIGS. 1A and 1B. FIG. 1A is a top view of an embodiment of a conventional touch panel, and FIG. 1B is a partially enlarged view of FIG. 1A. As shown in FIG. 1A, a touch panel 10 includes a touch area 20 and a wiring area 30 surrounding the touch area 20. The touch area 20 is an active area (AA area) corresponding to a display panel. The touch area 20 includes plural sensing units 22, and the wiring area 30 is passed through by wires, so that the wires connect the sensing unit 22 and a control circuit board 40. As shown in FIG. 1B, in order to prevent damage to the sensing units 22 caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD), in addition to that wires 32 are formed in the wiring area 30, a grounding component 34 is further formed at the periphery of the wires 32, so as to provide electrostatic defending and grounding functions. Additionally, the touch panel 10 also includes a test pad, such as the test pad 35 shown in FIG. 1B. Generally, the test pad 35 is formed at inner sides of the wires 32, and the grounding component 34 is disposed at the outer sides (periphery) of the wires 32.

However, since the grounding component 34 typically has a large area, and the material of the grounding component 34 has a poor adherence to the substrate, the situation of peeling of the grounding component 34 may easily caused, which affects the yield of the products. Furthermore, due to different manufacture processes, the grounding component 34 may be arranged on substrates of different materials, and these designs affect the adherence of the grounding component 34 to the substrate. Therefore, one of the problems to be solved by the invention is how to ensure the adherence of the grounding component 34 to different substrates.

FIG. 2 is a partially enlarged view of an embodiment of the touch panel of the invention. The touch panel 100 includes a touch area 110 and a wiring area 120 surrounding the touch area 110. The touch area 110 includes plural sensing units used for generating a signal indicating the press/touch position. The wiring area 120 includes plural wires 122 and grounding components 124. The wires 122 are used for connecting the sensing units and the control circuit board. The grounding components 124 are used for providing electrostatic defending and grounding functions. It should be specially noted that, although in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the grounding components 124 are formed both at the inner sides and the outer sides (periphery) of the wires 122, in other embodiments, the grounding component 124 may only formed at the inner sides or outer sides of the wires 122. The grounding component 124 formed at the inner sides of the wires 122 is disposed between the wires 122 and the test pad 160, and the grounding component 124 formed at the outer sides of the wires 122 surrounds the wires 122.

The grounding component 124 is formed on the substrate 150. The grounding component 124 includes plural hollow portions 126 and plural conductive portions 128. The hollow portions 126 and the conductive portions 128 are alternatingly arranged. That is, adjacent conductive portions 128 are isolated from each other through one hollow portion 126. The conductive portions 128 can be formed on the substrate 150 through a lithography process. Part of the substrate 150 is exposed from the hollow portions 126 of the grounding component 124. The conductive portions 128 and the wires 122 are formed in the same layer as being manufactured under the same photo mask. Patterns of the hollow portions 126 and conductive portions 128 can be changed with different designs of the photo mask, and it only requires that the hollow portions 126 and the conductive portions 128 are alternatingly arranged in the grounding component 124.

In this embodiment, the conductive portions 128 approximately have long-strip shapes, and the hollow portions 126 arranged alternatingly with the conductive portions also have long-strip shapes. The long-strip shaped conductive portions 128 can be arranged in parallel to ach other, and each of the hollow portions 126 is disposed between each two adjacent conductive portions 128, so as to isolate the adjacent and parallel conductive portions 128. Since the shape of the conductive portion 128 of the embodiment is presented as a structure with plural long and narrow trips, in order to improve the structure strength of the grounding component 124, the grounding component 124 may further include at least one reinforcing rib 129. Therefore, parallel arranged long and narrow conductive portions 128 can be connected to each other through the reinforcing ribs 129, such that the conductive portions 128 are electrically conducted with each other, so as to improve the structure strength of the grounding component 124. The conductive portions 128 and the reinforcing ribs 129 can be integrated as a whole by using the same photo mask. That is, the conductive portions 128 and the reinforcing ribs 129 are manufactured in the same metal layer. As shown in FIG. 3A, the conductive portions 128 a and the reinforcing ribs 129 a are formed on the same layer by using the same photo mask.

The grounding component 124 is provided with hollow portions 126, so as to prevent the situation that conductive portions 128 with a large area adhere to the substrate 150, by slicing the grounding component 124. In this embodiment, reducing the contact area between the conductive portions 128 and the substrate 150 in an unit area can effectively improve the adherence of the conductive portions 128 to the substrate 150, reduce the problem in the prior art of metal peeling from the grounding component, and improve the yield and reliability of the product.

As described above, the grounding component 124 mainly includes a hollow portion 126 and a conductive portion 128. As long as the conductive portion 128 with a large area does not exist in the grounding component 124, the function of preventing the peeling of the conductive portion 128 from the substrate 150 can be achieved by slicing the ground component 124. More particularly, in this embodiment, a wire width of the conductive portion 128 included in the grounding component 124 is smaller than 60 μm, and the wire spacing (width) of the hollow portion 126 included in the grounding component 124 is also smaller than 60 μm. Therefore the grounding component 124 is prevented from being presented as a lumped metal layer with a large area, as shown in FIG. 1B. In particular, the wire spacing of the hollow portion 126 and the wire width of the conductive portion 128 can be determined according to the processing capability. Generally, the wire spacing of the hollow portion 126 and the wire width of the conductive portion 128 are respectively from about 30 μm to 60 μm. In this embodiment, the area ratio of the hollow portion 126 to the conductive portion 128 is 1:1, but the invention is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the area ratio of the hollow portion 126 to the conductive portion 128 may be defined as 0.6-1.4, and the area ratio of the hollow portion 126 to the conductive portion 128 can be adjusted according to conducting properties of the material, circuit layout, processing capability and the like.

It should be noted that, in the touch panel 100, in addition to the grounding component 124, other metal layers or conductive components with large areas can also be sliced using the same method, to prevent the problem of peeling of a metal layer with a large area from the substrate 150. For example, as shown in FIG. 2 the test pad 160 on the touch panel 100 can also be sliced, so that the test pad 160 also includes the conductive portion 162 and the hollow portion 164 arranged alternatingly. The wire width of the conductive portion 162 is also not greater than 60 μm. In this embodiment, the conductive portion 162 and the hollow portion 164 are arranged in parallel to each other linearly, and the hollow portion 164 is used for slicing the test pad 160 with a large area to accordingly form the conductive portion 162. It should be noted that, the main characteristic of the slicing in the invention is forming at least one hollow portion on a metal layer with a large area and enclosed periphery, so as to reduce the area of the metal layer, and achieve the effect that the metal layer cannot be easily peeled from the substrate.

The grounding component 124 and the test pad 160 can have different pattern arrangement as being manufactured under different design of photo masks, and it is only required to slice the metal layer with the large area into a metal layer having plural hollow portions, which will be illustrated through embodiments hereafter.

References are made to FIGS. 3A-3D, FIGS. 3A-3D are schematic views of different embodiments of the grounding component of the invention. In the embodiment as shown in FIG. 3A, the grounding component 124 a includes plural conductive portions 128 a, plural hollow portions 126 a and plural reinforcing ribs 129 a. The conductive portions 128 a and the hollow portions 126 a are strips approximately in parallel to each other. The conductive portions 128 a are isolated from each other through the hollow portions 126 a, and the reinforcing ribs 129 are perpendicular to the conductive portions 128 a and the hollow portions 126 a. In this embodiment, the conductive portions 128 a, reinforcing ribs 129 and hollow portions 126 a may have the same or different widths. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3B, the grounding component 124 b includes plural hollow portions 126 b and plural conductive portions 128 b. The hollow portions 126 b are approximately line segments parallel to each other, so that the conductive portions 128 b are presented as to patterns with grating forms. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3C, the grounding component 124 c includes plural hollow portions 126 c and plural conductive portions 128 c. The hollow portion 126 c may include plural rectangle patterns arranged in a matrix form, so that the conductive portions 128 b are presented as patterns with a clathrate form.

Additionally, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3D, the grounding component 124 d includes plural hollow portions 126 d and plural conductive portions 128 d. The hollow portions 126 d and the conductive portions 128 d are arranged alternatingly, and the hollow portions 126 d are presented as patterns with a zigzag form.

As described above, in principle in the embodiments shown in FIGS. 3A-3D, the area ratio of the hollow portions to the conductive portions is preferably designed as 0.6-1.4.

The aforesaid FIGS. 3A-3D are only used for illustrating the possible patterns formed after the grounding component is sliced, but not intended to limit the pattern of the grounding component. The aforesaid pattern may also be applied to the test pad or other conductive components with large areas, which will not be illustrated here anymore.

According to the design of layer lamination sequence, in a conventional capacitive-type touch panel, the signal wire layer is first manufactured for delivering the touch signal and control signal, and transparent conducting layers of an x-axis electrode and a y-axis electrode are manufactured. Since the etching solution applied in the transparent conducting layer may etch the signal wire layer, it usually needs to cover a transparent conducting layer over the signal wire layer to prevent the etching solution effect, which increases the complexity of the manufacture process. In view of the above, another aspect of the invention provides a layer lamination design of a capacitive-type touch panel, which can simplify the complexity of the process design and improve the productivity.

FIG. 4A, is a schematic view of a layer lamination structure according to an embodiment of a further aspect of the touch panel of the invention. The lamination structure applied in the touch panel 200 includes a substrate 210, a shielding layer 220 formed on the substrate 210, a sensitive layer 230 formed on the shielding layer 220, a signal wire layer 240 formed on the sensitive layer 230, and a protecting layer 250 formed on the signal wire layer 240. The sensitive layer 230 includes plural sensing units including a first transparent conducting layer 232, an insulation layer 234 and a second transparent conducting layer 236. The first transparent conducting layer 232 is regarded as a bridge layer, and the second transparent conducting layer 236 is regarded as the x-axis electrode and the y-axis electrode.

Reference is made to FIGS. 2 and 4B. FIG. 4B is a cross-sectional view of the touch panel 200 shown in FIG. 4A, and the profile position thereof can be referred to the line segment A-A shown in FIG. 2. In the touch panel 200, the substrate 210 may be a silicon substrate or a transparent substrate manufactured of other materials, and the shielding layer 220 is formed in the wiring area at the periphery of the substrate 210 through a lithography process. The shielding layer 220 may be a black photoresist layer. Subsequently, also through the lithography process, the first transparent conducting layer 232 is formed on the substrate 210; the insulation layer 234 is formed on the first transparent conducting layer 232; and the second transparent conducting layer 236 is formed on the insulation layer 234 and the substrate 210. The second transparent conducting layer 236 is regarded as the x-axis electrode and the y-axis electrode. In this embodiment, the second transparent conducting layer 236 includes plural electrode units 236 a, 236 b and 236 c with rhombus or other forms. These electrode units 236 a, 236 b and 236 c are arranged in lines or series. The electrode units 236 c in alternate lines are connected to each other in the longitudinal direction (the direction of y-axis), and the electrode units 236 a and 236 b at left and right of the electrode units 236 c arranged in lines in the lateral direction (the direction of x-axis) are independent (being insulated electrically to each other) and electrically connected to each other via the first transparent conducting layer 232. The pattern of the first transparent conducting layer 232 is as a bridge structure with long and narrow strip forms, so as to bridge-connect these independent electrode units 236 a and 236 b isolated by the insulation layer 234 in the lateral direction. As such, electrode series consisting of the electrode units at the direction of x-axis and electrode series consisting of the electrode units at the direction of y-axis can be obtained, and the electrode series at the direction of x-axis can be electrically isolated from the electrode series at the direction of y-axis through the insulation layer 234. It should be specially noted that, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4B, an insulation island formed by the insulation layer 234 is correspondingly disposed on each bridge structure formed by the first transparent conducting layer 232. These insulation islands and these bridge structures are arranged as a matrix on the substrate 210.

In other words, the first transparent conducting layer 232 of the invention includes plural bridge structures. The electrode units 236 a and 236 b at the lateral direction of the second transparent conducting layer 236 are electrically connected to each other through the plural bridge structures. The insulation layer 234 is used for isolating the first transparent conducting layer 232 and the second transparent conducting layer 236.

Part of the insulation layer 234 is formed on the shielding layer 220. The signal wire layer 240 is formed on the sensitive layer 230. In particular, the signal wire layer 240 is formed on the second transparent conducting layer 236 and is disposed on the part of the insulation layer 234 formed on the shielding layer 220. The signal wire layer 240 includes wires, test pads and grounding components as shown in FIGS. 2-3D, so that the sensitive layer 230 can be electrically connected to an external circuit through the signal wire layer 240. Finally, the protecting layer 250 is further formed on surfaces of the sensitive layer 230 and the signal wire layer 240. In other words, the signal wire layer 240 is formed on the insulation layer 234, and is disposed between the second transparent conducting layer 236, the insulation layer 234 and the protecting layer 250. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4B, the insulation layer 234 covers over the shielding layer 220. That is, at least a portion of the insulation layer 234 is disposed between the electrode unit 236 b, the signal wire layer 240 and the shielding layer 220. However, in other embodiments, the shielding layer 220 may not be provided with an insulation layer (not shown) covered thereon. In other words, the signal wire layer 240 directly covers over the electrode unit 236 b and the shielding layer 220.

In another embodiment, the signal wire layer 240 may include a grounding component (not shown) formed on the shielding layer 220, and the grounding component includes plural hollow portions and plural conductive portions. The hollow portions and conductive portions are arranged alternatingly.

In this embodiment, by adjusting the layer lamination sequence of the touch panel 200, the signal wire layer 240 is designed as manufactured after the sensitive layer 230. Since the signal wire layer 240 is usually composed of a metal layer, via the provided layer lamination sequence, the etching solution for etching the transparent conducting layer does not damage the metal layer manufactured thereafter, which prevent the problem of the prior art that the metal layer is eroded by the etching solution.

FIG. 5A, is a schematic view of a layer lamination structure according to an embodiment of a further aspect of the touch panel of the invention. The lamination structure applied in the touch panel 300 includes a substrate 310, a shielding layer 320 formed on the substrate 310, a sensitive layer 330 formed on the shielding layer 320, a signal wire layer 340 formed on the sensitive layer 330 and a protecting layer 350 formed on the signal wire layer 340. The sensitive layer 330 includes plural sensing units consisting of a transparent conducting layer 332 and an insulation layer 334. The transparent conducting layer 332 is regarded as the x-axis electrode and the y-axis electrode. The signal wire layer 340 includes the wires, grounding components and test pads. In addition, the signal wire layer 340 can further include plural bridge structures which are used to electrically connect the electrode units of the transparent conducting layer 332.

References are made to FIGS. 2 and 5B. FIG. 5B is a cross-sectional view of the touch panel 300 shown in FIG. 5A, and the profile position thereof can be referred to the line segment A-A shown in FIG. 2. In the touch panel 300, the substrate 310 may be a silicon substrate or a transparent substrate manufactured of other materials, and the shielding layer 320 is formed in the wiring area at the periphery of the substrate 310 through a lithography process. Subsequently, also through the lithography process, a transparent conducting layer 332 is formed on the substrate 310. The transparent conducting layer 332 includes plural electrode units 332 a, 332 b and 332 c with rhombus or other forms. These electrode units 332 a, 332 b and 332 c are arranged in series or lines. The electrode units 332 c in alternate lines are connected to each other in the longitudinal direction (the direction of y-axis), and the electrode units 332 a and 332 b at left and right of the electrode units 332 c arranged in lines are independent and inconspicuous patterns. Thereafter, the insulation layer 334 is formed on the transparent conducting layer 332, and part of the insulation layer 334 is filled in a gap between the electrode units of the transparent conducting layer 332.

Afterwards, the signal wire layer 340 is formed respectively on the sensitive layer 330 and the shielding layer 320. The signal wire layer 340 b formed on the sensitive layer 330 is regarded as a bridge layer, and the pattern thereof is a bridge structure with long and narrow strip forms, so as to connect the electrode units 332 a and 332 b in a lateral direction (the direction of x-axis). As such, electrode series at the direction of x-axis and electrode series at the direction of y-axis can be obtained, and the electrode series at the direction of x-axis can be electrically isolated from the electrode series at the direction of y-axis through the insulation layer 334. The signal wire layer 340 b formed on the shielding layer 320 includes wires, the grounding component and the test pad. Finally, the protecting layer 350 is further formed on the sensitive layer 330 and the signal wire layer 340.

Namely, the signal wire layer 340 includes plural bridge structures 340 b formed on the insulation layer 334. The electrode units (such as the electrode units 332 a and 332 b) at the lateral direction of the transparent conducting layer 332 are electrically connected to each other through the plural bridge structures 340 b. The insulation layer 334 is used for isolating the transparent conducting layer 332 and the bridge structures 340 b of the signal wire layer 340, making the same being insulated electrically to each other.

Similarly, in another embodiment, the signal wire layer 340 may include a grounding component (not shown) formed on the shielding layer 320, and the grounding component includes plural hollow portions and plural conductive portions. The hollow portions and conductive portions are arranged alternatingly.

In this embodiment, also by adjusting the layer lamination sequence of the touch panel 300, the signal wire layer 340 is designed as manufactured after the sensitive layer 330. As such, the etching solution for etching the transparent conducting layer does not damage the metal layer manufactured thereafter, which prevent the problem of the prior art that the metal layer is etched by the etching solution.

In the touch panel provided by the invention, in addition to slicing metal blocks with large areas (such as the grounding component) to prevent the situation of metal peeling, the reliability of the touch panel is improved and the manufacturing steps of the same is simplified by changing the sequence of the layer lamination structure.
